My name is Terra Zabini.
His name is Coda Wood.
This is the story of how we fell in love.
How we found each other
Even though he is supposed to hate me
Even though I am supposed to hate him
We can't be who we aren't
We can't take away that feeling
We can't tell a lie so great
Our love will prevail
Our love will conquer time
Just as we did
The First year
We were sorted apart.
He went to Ravenclaw like his sister before him
I went to Slytherin just like my family before me
He sent me a look of pity
I only sneered back
I would show him
Slytherin was better
We were stronger
This went on the whole first month
Then came potions partners
We were the brightest
The prodigies
So naturally we were together
We started out as enemies
And ended the year as best friends
My father loved it
My mother never got to voice her thoughts
His father just said not to become evil
His mother became like my own
That was the first year
The Second Year
This year we might hate each other
With only one true reason
Quiditch
He and I
Always against one another
Both as seekers
Both the best
Our brooms were the same
So was our skill
This came near to our breaking point
Until his team sent a buldger at me
He fought to kick them off
He won
All for me
He told them to give us the win
He put the snitch into my hand while I was on the ground
He handed me the win
I handed it back the next match
We never fought over that again
That was year two
The Third Year
Her name was Ricka
He thought he loved her
I thought I was going to die
She was perfect
Blonde
Tall
Beautiful
Everything I was not
She was not as good in Quiditch
So he never had to worry about her beating him
She always let him win
She depended on him
He never spoke to me
So I left them to be
He got his seat changed in potions
He never sat with me in the Library
That was when I first though I liked him
I knew that I would get over it
He was just a boy
My best friend
But still just a boy
She followed him to the summer
That was the third year
The Fourth Year
They were still in love
But now I had another
Coda hated the boy
But I was mad for him
Ky
Son of Cho Chang
Amazing keeper on the Ravenclaw team
And apparently Coda's sworn enemy
I didn't care
He was always there
He never left me
He was kind
He was amazing
He always let me win
He never made me cry
He made me smile
A real smile
My father loved him
My mother would never get to meet him
I thought that I was in love
So did Ky
The ball came
We went
Coda went with Ricka
He never spoke to me
He broke me more
I didn't care
Then I did
Ky
Was behind a bush
With a Hufflepuff
I ran off crying
Ky apologized
Then walked away
That was the Fourth Year
The Fifth Year
Prefect
The badge came with my letter
So did Coda's
We both knew though
He owled Ricka
She never replied
We approached the train
Ricka moved
That was all we heard as we got on
She was gone in America
Coda was crushed
I was secretly happy
This year maybe he would talk to me again
He didn't
He said I was to nerdy
He said I belonged in Ravenclaw more than him
I traded off every patrol I had with him
I didn't want to deal with that
Sure I had changed
But he never cared when he had her
My father never found out
Neither did his
We played our parts over the holidays
But when we went back
He left me alone
I cried
Then he found me
In the library
I was studying stratifies for Quiditch
I was captain too this year
He wasn't
He looked at me and saw the pain
I asked him why he was here
He just stared
He apologized
Then he walked away
In our match
I won
I always won
We won the cup that year
That was the Fifth year
The Sixth Year
Over the summer
He said he was sorry
Just heart broken
He would be a better friend this year
He swore
He stayed true
He always did
I was happy
For the first time
In what felt like forever
Then I fell for him again
I didn't want that
I couldn't take it
He would leave me and fall for someone else
I really didn't want to hurt him
So I stayed
I pretended
Like it wasn't there
He never cared anyway
So I made it go away
Exams were pressure
We studied together again
Just like the first two years
We aced every exam thrown our way
We were on top of the world
My house won Quiditch again
Just like always
Only this year
I had more competition
He was captain
So was I
But I was better
He was bitter
He got over it
We lived through it
Just like old times
That was the Sixth year
The Seventh Year
The final year
Head girl
I had expected
Ky was head boy
We got along
But Coda still hated him
It was impossible
Ky asked me out again
Coda waited for my reply
I said no
Ky was upset
He got over it
Coda was confused
Who is the other boy he asked
I told him to look in the mirror
He never did
He just stared at me
Like I was crazy
That's what you get for telling someone you love them
Only not really
I should have guessed
He wouldn't care
I could have guessed
But I ignored it
I went for it
My heart broke
Then he came back
He said he liked a girl
When I asked who he said look in the mirror
My heart soared
He put his lips to mine
I asked how long
He said forever
He said he never wanted to admit it
He never wanted to hurt me
Then he did
He hated that part of his past
But he loved this future
I loved mine too
That was the Seventh year
The Wedding
We had a Blue and Silver cake
He gave me my ring through a snitch
We rode away on a broom
We were happy
Both Ky and Ricka came
Both happy we had found each other
They had found each other too
We were all happy
My mother would have loved to see this
My father cried
The Family Years
Fauna and Zych
Those were the names we chose
They grew up to be bright and amazing
Fauna went to Ravenclaw grew to prefect and seeker
Zych went to Slytherin grew to Head boy and beater
They married a Gryphendor and a Hufflepuff
We were all happy
The Final Day
I was falling
The cancer was too much to bear
It hurt
Too much
He hated watching me like this
But he stayed with me
I was scared
I whispered how much I loved him
Then my heart beat the last beat
So did his
I hope you liked it! It's a free verse type. I thought I would give it a shot, I think it was good… sorry if you hated it. I might do one from Coda's point of view… I'm not sure though.
